The special tribunal set up to recover money looted from the state is expected to be operational by October, the head of the Special Investigations Unit (SIU), Andy Mothibi, said on Tuesday.

The tribunal was established by President Cyril Ramaphosa in February.

Mothibi told the portfolio committee on justice and correctional services a “governance committee” had been established to look at matters arising from the Zondo commission of inquiry into state capture, and the other commissions.

Mothibi said it would be also be looking at several state capture allegations, including Bosasa.

He added the “governance committee” had engaged with the National Prosecuting Authority in this regard and was certain “some of those actions that were not sanctioned some time back will now be receiving appropriate action”.
